Beat Guéret to widen the gap… This will be the objective in Federal 3 for’OC Montlucon (1st, 40 pts), this Sunday, January 23 (3 p.m.), at home in the stadium of La Loue against RC Guéret (6e, 18 pts), on the 11th day.
The context
“Our victory at Cusset [22-24] last Sunday for the recovery allowed us to work calmly this week and to correct what was not going well”, indicates Bourbonnais coach Dominique Héritier. What was wrong too? “In particular on the conservation of the ball and the standing game, suddenly we have very focused on cohesion in order to find automatisms”. And so perform better this time around.
Opponent: RC Guéret

“There the goal will be to follow up and be better… While being very careful with this Guéret team”. And this for three reasons:
“It will be one of Guéret’s last shots to stay in the race for the final stages; they changed coaches during the break; and their match last weekend was postponed so that will be their replay. »
Dominique Hetier (coach of OC Montluçon)

In short, the technician is a little “into the unknown” on this meeting. “Especially since in addition they will surely be revenge, because we had won at home on the way [6-20, le 3 octobre] “. So distrust. “They don’t have a lot of big guys, but they are mobile and send a lot of play,” warns Héritier.
Goals
What to oppose them? “We will have to do what we know how to do: play too, not be wait-and-see and be present from 3 p.m., not 3:20 p.m. “, he lists. Before setting the goal: Minimal win! And if we can take the bonus, we shouldn’t be shy. The objective is always to “validate the qualification as soon as possible”.
